Ladies, Dresses at the Grosveaor Gall
 Iery.
 From the London Telegraph
 Many of the dresses at the Grosvenor were the same as those worn at the Academy on the previous day. A few, however, were different. The lady who on Friday wore black and lilac appeared on Saturday in startling combination of black and bright yellow. Her bonnet was of black lace, with yellow velvet string and 9 group of yellow hyacinths and tulips at one side. Her dress was of black brocade, and her mantle a short one, closely beaded with jet. In it dozen or so of bright yellow tulips were pinned.
 A remarkable dress was of beige. colored silk. There was bodice with short sleeves worn over it of velvet tartan, in which many coIors were subtIy mingled. The long sleeves were of beige-colored silk, with cuffs of the velvet tartan. The bonnet was made of beige-colored feathers to initiate str aw. Each tiny piece of feather was sewn on sepa- rately, row upon row, looking just as straw would look The effect hardly justified the enormous trouble, as only very close ob- server could see that it was feather. It was trimmed with green velvet, and in front was bunch of natural-looking tulips, which seemed to repeat every color in the tartan over- bodice.
 A dress of silver-gray homespun had sleeveless coat of the same colored plush, | namented round the edge with silver cord. This little coat was cut in tabs below the | waist, and each tab was lined with pink silk. The skirt was beautifully draped. Here and there the folds seemingly turned over, giving hints of pink silk lining. The hat was of pink silk, turned up at the back with pink velvet. It was gathered into large pleats above the face, each one of which WAS lined with pink velvet.
 A good dress was of dark green cloth with a 1ounce of blue fox fur. A bronze cloth jacket was worn over it, the front being col ored with gold. The bonnet was 8 harmoni- ous bit of dark-red millinery.
 A girl who wore dress of crude royal blue | broche and adorned her black hat with 8 ''market" bunch of exceedingly yellow prim- | roses proved her love for color; unfortunately, | of painfully wrong sort A mantle of l bronze cloth was made with revers of fawn- | colored cloth braided with bronze and green cord It had double front of the 1 lawn color, and could be worn with the rev. CTS thrown back or closed. It was over dress | of dark corded green silk. The bonnet was of black lace, out of which grew lilies of the val ley, heliotrope, and white lilac, tied with moss l green velvet ribbon.
 l One of the prettiest costumes there was of 1 twine colored poplin. The bodice was made I with vest of cream crepe. At one side | lI was DOIu6reO WIGu lOIOS Ol folSoL, SudOo | or two deeper in tone. At the other there was fern leaf embroidered in silver beads and twine colored silk. The skirt fell at the back in perfectly plain folds. At one side these took graceful curve half way across the front, where they were caught under large velvet bows. The other side was per fectly plain, and was crossed obliquely by narrow bands of silver and twine- -colored embroidery. Beneath the velvet bows anoth- CT embroidered fern leaf appeared, as though laid on the velvet lining. The bonnet worn with this dress was of black velvet. with two wing-like pieces of jet at the back. Beside each of these piece of pure white gulls breast feather was laid. A high black and white osprey seemed to rise from behind these feathers.
 A great many tailor made habiliments
 were worn on both days, some of them
 being of tweed with an immense check
 One small woman wore dress of thif
 description, in which it was easily seer
 that two of the squares had been found
 sufficient to clothe her. On the whole
 it was apparent that very special care ant
 pains had been bestowed upon the toilets, an6
 both occasions might have. been called 6elt days of millinery.
